Dear all,

I need to connect my flash builder application to Dropbox but until now there is not dropbox API for ActionScript, I found an unofficial API for AS3 but it seems use an deprecated version, so it doesn't work.

Looking  on Google I see that there is a possibility to connect an Action Script class to Objective C library through Adobe Native Extension, but I want understand if it possible extend for example my methods or property.

For example:

I write a library in Objective C through wich I can connect and operate with Dropbox, this class has, for example the methods upload,download and connect. The question is can I use this methods in actionscript class??

If yes please can you advise a simple guide?

thank you very much

Andrea

Adobe Native Extensions (ANE) are a way to bridge the gap between static libraries written in objective C and Flash/Flex

It's kinda tricky (at least for me) but I have successfully written a static library in xcode and have been able to integrate it and use it in my flash cs5.5 pro project.
